World Cup 2026 Channels by Country: Who Broadcasts Every Match

FIFA World Cup 2026 broadcast rights are held by different TV channels in every country. Finding out which channel shows your team's match — and how to watch it if you're abroad or your local broadcaster only shows selected games — is the most common problem fans face. This guide covers every major country's official World Cup 2026 broadcasters and shows you how IPTV Fusion gives you access to all of them from one service.

World Cup 2026 Channels: Quick Reference by Region

United Kingdom

The BBC and ITV share UK rights. All 104 matches are available across both broadcasters combined. High-profile matches (England games, semifinals, final) are typically on BBC One or ITV1 in prime time.

United States

Fox and Telemundo/NBCUniversal hold all US rights. Fox broadcasts in English; Telemundo and its streaming platform Peacock cover all matches in Spanish.

France

Germany

Spain

Portugal

Italy

Netherlands

Sweden

Norway

Denmark

Finland

Canada

Australia

Australia is one of the best countries for World Cup viewing — SBS broadcasts every single match free of charge on TV and its streaming app.

The Problem with Free-to-Air Coverage

Every country's public broadcaster only shows selected matches — typically national team games and the final. If you want to watch all 104 matches, you need a paid subscription in most countries (DAZN, beIN Sports, MagentaTV, Sport TV, etc.).

The combined cost of individual subscriptions in multiple countries adds up quickly. IPTV Fusion solves this by including all of these broadcasters in a single subscription:

• BBC, ITV (UK)
• Fox Sports, Telemundo (USA)
• TF1, beIN Sports (France)
• ARD, ZDF, MagentaTV (Germany)
• RTVE, DAZN (Spain)
• RTP, Sport TV (Portugal)
• RAI, DAZN (Italy)
• NOS, Ziggo Sport (Netherlands)
• SVT, TV4 (Sweden)
• NRK, TV 2 (Norway)
• DR, TV 2 (Denmark)
• Yle, MTV3 (Finland)
• 50+ more national broadcasters worldwide
